In "Machina Ex Deus" Ajax Sterling and Bippy the Space
Hippo once again find themselves responding to a distress signal on an out-of-the way,
primitive planet by the name of Primeva II. Nothing can ever be easy for our space
mechanics and they end up being captured by the local natives. On the plus side, it turns
out the natives were sent to get them by the computer on a Dachandran ship. The ship is in
need of their expertise to replace a blown fuse so it can change location. On the
downside, Dr. Livingston Cheezdoodle (intergalactic explorer and cryptoarchaeologist) who
is captured with our heroes is also trying to find that Dachandran ship and loot the
artifacts within. A lot of wacky close calls and one-liners are perpetrated by all. The
Ajax and Bippy installment in this issue wasnt as hilarious as the two from issue #1
but it was still entertaining.

The second story, "Monsta Mart" stars a new
character, Lil Timmy Smithers. Lil Timmy gets a lot more than he bargained for
when he wanders into the Monsta Mart in search of sauerkraut ice cream to power his comic
book built ray gun. I laughed the hardest at this story. The "Queen Mother Easter
Eggs" and the "Theres Always Room for JELLO BIAFRA" packages on the
shelves were a hoot. Hopefully well be treated to more Lil Jimmy Smithers
stories in future issues.
